My dietician is the one telling me I have to do one a day or I'll be in the hospital with a pic line. I think they think I'm being picky but I'm not. I had trouble with these pre op. I can get Water, Jello, even the tart tasting multi Vitamins in with no problem. I have no idea what to do. I called back this evening and was informed my doctor is gone until July 11.

I saw my Dr and my Nut today. They both said I have to get one in or I would be in the hospital with a pic line. I dont know what it is with the shakes. I couldn't hardly do one a day pre op so I ate one small meal a day so I wouldn't feel bad ( I work outside in GA heat). I think my NUT and Dr. Think I'm just being picky but I swear I'm not. I'm so upset about this. Water, Jello, sugar free pops are all fine. They said vomiting is due to dehydration and it will go away one I can hold 3 bottles of water a day. Even my chewable tart Vitamins are fine. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am 4 days out from surgery. I had my drain removed today. The doctor wants me to have at least 1-3 Protein shakes a day. I had problems getting them down pre op and experimented with different flavors and brands. I just tried to get one swallow in and I gagged and heaved and vomited so violently I popped a stitch in my wound. I have this reaction every time. My family is telling me go to yogurt and egg whites since my doctor told me to do that next Friday. I am afraid it is too soon. Any advice would be appreciated. I'm tired of vomiting.

I am having difficulty with tastes. I can't take pain med or protien shakes because I just get so sick and dry heave. I'm afraid of my incisions busting open from having so hard. I just got my drain out 10 minutes ago and starting Vitamin supplements. Hopefully it will get better. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My surgery was Monday and the shakes are a big problem. They are too thick. Even tried the powdered one with Water. I gag and hack foam every time I try to down some. I'm ready to eat a scrambled egg. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yes. They mixed it with water. Tasted like a cold hot chocolate. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thanks. The hospital ended up giving me something called unjury which was better but I'm just not a happy camper this early into it. I get my drain removed tomorrow. Not looking forward to that either. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm just wondering when i will feel better? My surgery was Monday and the foam and mucus are making it hard to keep anything down. I feel like I made the wrong choice. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I had mine Monday and I feel awful. My doctor is wanting Protein shakes every hour on the hour. With the foam and mucus all I do is gag and cry. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I felt the same way. I had mine Monday and have experienced nothing but misery. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
